Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Ooops. Decision Made.

I have been debating whether or not to get rid of a pair of sandals. They are cuteish. Red. Win. Win. Right? 

Well. The faux red leather is flaking off a bit. The strap over my pinkie toes doesn't keep my pinkies contained. (This is not a new problem. My pinky toes are rebellious and squatty.) And the sandals are NOT comfortable. 

So I wore them yesterday and was annoyed at how unpleasant they are so I took them off and kicked them under the table. 

Today, this happened. 

Decision made. And the additional decision whether to toss them or donate them if I chose to give them the boot. 

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Awwww So Cute Wednesday

Happy Day. I found another cute dog to visit often. Of course he's a beagle. Meet Maymo, Cute dog, Maymo. 

Scraps and Snippets ~ Vegan Thai Coleslaw

Thai Coleslaw

1 16 ounce bag of coleslaw shreds (this is about 5 handfuls if you like to shred your own cabbage)

½ Red pepper thinly sliced and chopped into 2 -3 inch pieces. (So slice pepper lengthwise then chop in half.)

2-3 TBSP finely chopped fresh cilantro

3-4 (use all of it, not just the green part) green onions/scallions, chopped

1 tsp lime zest

1 TBSP lime juice

1 TBSP rice wine vinegar

⅓ Cup Vegan mayo

¼ Cup peanut butter

1 Cup coconut milk (I used canned full fat without chilling)

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

1-2 teaspoons of red pepper flakes (use to taste, I used 2 and it was a nice burn)

Optional:

1 Cup peanuts

1 Cup chopped meatless chicken if desired

Prep, rinse, chop all your veggies.

In a large bowl pour in coconut milk, add peanut butter and mayo and stir until combined. Add salt, garlic powder, pepper flakes, lime juice, vinegar and lime zest. Finally stir in all the vegetables and add-ins and mix until coated.

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Nuff Said

 My brain is empty of interesting things to say. What was that? Well, of course that isn't a new problem. Anyhow. I got puppies so I could just post a picture of them when I can't be clever. Here you go.

I tackle the ins and outs of Beagle ownership over at my cousin Emily's blog (wouldn't that be a fun blog name?)

Scribbles and Scrambles ~ Fruitastical

In year four of our raspberry harvest we have hit fantastic yields. Especially since we didn't prune them as we should have. Last week we began pulling about a cup a day. The past two days we've netted about six cups a day We have twice as many raspberries in various stages of maturity and I'm guessing we've got at least another full week or two. Our roughly $50.00 investment and few punctures and pokes are paying dividends. 

The blueberries. Not quite as happy. But I'm a big fan of the raspberries.
